Bangkok's Oldest Neighbourhood – Talat Noi Walking Tour 4K

Walk with me through Talat Noi, one of Bangkok's oldest neighbourhoods, older than the city itself: hidden alleys, Chinese shrines, street art and engine-parts workshops on the Chao Phraya River. 4K, no talking, just the real sounds of the street. 🇪🇸 Info en pantalla en español · 🇧🇷 Informações na tela em português 📍 WHERE IS TALAT NOI? Talat Noi ("little market") sits on the east bank of the Chao Phraya River, right next to Bangkok's Chinatown (Yaowarat), in Samphanthawong district. The walk starts at the Marine Department pier and ends on Charoen Krung Road. 🏛️ WHY IT MATTERS • It was Bangkok's first port: immigrants landed here long before the city's modern harbour existed. • Portuguese settlers from Ayutthaya came first, followed by Chinese, Vietnamese and Khmer communities, and you can still see that mix in its shrines, churches and houses. • So Heng Tai, a 19th-century Hokkien courtyard mansion, is still home to the founder's descendants. • Since World War II its alleys have been Thailand's original second-hand auto-parts market (Sieng Kong), and today old warehouses are becoming cafés and art spaces. ⏱️ CHAPTERS 0:00 Intro 0:35 Talat Noi laneways 1:25 32Bar X chocolate bar 2:35 So Heng Tai Mansion 3:35 Shrines and hidden alleys 6:03 Mother Roaster 7:06 Street art alleys 9:13 965bkk café 9:56 Market streets 10:54 Back lanes 14:02 Walk to the river 16:04 Chao Phraya River 16:44 Sieng Kong auto-parts street 17:54 Back to the city 🗺️ PLACES IN THIS VIDEO (Google Maps) • Marine Department pier (start): https://www.google.com/maps/search/?a... • 32Bar X, chocolate made only from Thai cacao: https://www.google.com/maps/search/?a... • So Heng Tai Mansion: https://www.google.com/maps/search/?a... • Mother Roaster, coffee above a mechanic's shop: https://www.google.com/maps/search/?a... • 965bkk, café in a 200-year-old warehouse: https://www.google.com/maps/search/?a... • Sieng Kong auto-parts street: https://www.google.com/maps/search/?a... 🚲 EXPLORE IT YOURSELF • Bike tour through Chinatown and Talat Noi's alleys: https://gyg.me/yURd7zLQ • Bangkok tours and activities: https://gyg.me/1eqVohES • More Bangkok tours on Klook: https://klook.tpx.gr/lGbKhvnK • Where to stay near Talat Noi: https://klook.tpx.gr/9IGqmEDH • Getting there: MRT Hua Lamphong (Blue Line) or the Chao Phraya Express Boat to Marine Department pier. 🎥 MY GEAR • Camera: DJI Osmo Action 4 ✈️ TRAVEL ESSENTIALS • eSIM for Thailand (data from the moment you land): https://airalo.tpx.gr/GYzaSDF4 ☕ SUPPORT THE CHANNEL • Buy me a coffee: https://buymeacoffee.com/porahiaround • Ko-fi: https://ko-fi.com/porahiaround • Subscribe for more walks around the world:    / @porahiaround   Some links are affiliate links: if you book or buy through them I may earn a small commission at no extra cost to you.
